Can anyone guess what this is? It shouldn't be that hard.

Yup.

I was practicing with long exposures with my camera, and I kept seeing that my pictures were blurred. On the little preview screen on the camera, it looked like the result of a shaky tripod.

But once I looked at the pictures on my computer and checked out this pic, I just realized that the tripod wasn't shaking, it's just the stars in the sky moving. I wouldn't have thought that the stars move that much in 30 seconds, but they do.

You can tell it's not camera shake since the plane flying by left a nice straight line. Since the lights on the wings blink in an alternating fashion, it leaves that neat pattern on the long exposure.

Where are you located? Some areas are better for star trails than others.

I'm in NJ. It's not even a nice night to look at the stars since the moon is full and it's bright out.

The trails should look the same everywhere since the Earth is moving.

Coolness.

The stars aren't moving, you're moving

Technically, both he _and_ the stars are moving.

And there's definitely camera shake in there too as seen by the roof's blur. Probably either from mirror-slap if it's an SLR or from not using the self-timer since the shake doesn't last the entire shot. In any case, I applaud any experimenting with a camera. It's always fun.
